Property description
Fine and Country Northern Lincolnshire is proud to present this delightful property which has in total five bedrooms and four bathrooms to the main house and a further one bedroom annex which is separated from the main house by two of the three double garages.An Indian limestone terrace - with hand crafted decorative panels - overlooks broad southern lawns which, in turn, enjoy field side views. There is a vibrant charm throughout Millstone Cottage that recalls the delight of children or the laughter of family celebrations; the space superbly caters for teenage independence as well as for dependent relatives. It is the exquisite sum of the unique parts which truly makes Millstone Cottage \"a home for all seasons”.
From its original, modest origins in 1649, as Sheffield Estate cottages, Millstone Cottage slowly reveals itself as a home of exquisite charm and sophistication: an eminently flexible family residence combining traditional intimacy with modern style.The current owners have spent considerable time extending, improving and merging the separate properties into a uniquely, harmonious home which is so much more than the sum of its constituent parts.
An undoubted eye for detail and a flair for interior design connect the disparate elements as seen by slate floors, linking the main reception rooms and contrasting with the opulently carpeted 37'10\" second lounge or the charm of hand printed Laura Ashley wallpaper contrasting with the modern copper radiator in the master en-suite.The two former cottages are distinct in their own right, yet, form a much larger whole centred on the bespoke kitchen with dining/day room, ideal for large family celebrations. The intimate sitting room with a striking inglenook fireplace contrasts with the separate formal dining room.
